KVM/arm64 updates for 6.2

- Enable the per-vcpu dirty-ring tracking mechanism, together with an
  option to keep the good old dirty log around for pages that are
  dirtied by something other than a vcpu.

- Switch to the relaxed parallel fault handling, using RCU to delay
  page table reclaim and giving better performance under load.

- Relax the MTE ABI, allowing a VMM to use the MAP_SHARED mapping
  option, which multi-process VMMs such as crosvm rely on.

- Merge the pKVM shadow vcpu state tracking that allows the hypervisor
  to have its own view of a vcpu, keeping that state private.

- Add support for the PMUv3p5 architecture revision, bringing support
  for 64bit counters on systems that support it, and fix the
  no-quite-compliant CHAIN-ed counter support for the machines that
  actually exist out there.

- Fix a handful of minor issues around 52bit VA/PA support (64kB pages
  only) as a prefix of the oncoming support for 4kB and 16kB pages.

- Add/Enable/Fix a bunch of selftests covering memslots, breakpoints,
  stage-2 faults and access tracking. You name it, we got it, we
  probably broke it.

- Pick a small set of documentation and spelling fixes, because no
  good merge window would be complete without those.

As a side effect, this tag also drags:

- The 'kvmarm-fixes-6.1-3' tag as a dependency to the dirty-ring
  series

- A shared branch with the arm64 tree that repaints all the system
  registers to match the ARM ARM's naming, and resulting in
  interesting conflicts

<title>KVM: selftests: Add a userfaultfd library</title>

Move the generic userfaultfd code out of demand_paging_test.c into a
common library, userfaultfd_util. This library consists of a setup and a
stop function. The setup function starts a thread for handling page
faults using the handler callback function. This setup returns a
uffd_desc object which is then used in the stop function (to wait and
destroy the threads).
